Clustering is ubiquitous in data analysis, including analysis of time series. It is inherently subjective: different users may prefer different clusterings for a particular dataset. Semi-supervised clustering addresses this by allowing the user to provide examples of instances that should (not) be in the same cluster. …

12 results for “COBRA”
Constraint-based clustering algorithms exploit background knowledge to construct clusterings that are aligned with the interests of a particular user. This background knowledge is often obtained by allowing the clustering system to pose pairwise queries to the user: should these two elements be in the same cluster or n…
Constrained optimization of high-dimensional numerical problems plays an important role in many scientific and industrial applications. Function evaluations in many industrial applications are severely limited and no analytical information about objective function and constraint functions is available. For such expensi…
Paper introduces COBRA variations for multivariate time series forecasting.
problem Multivariate time series forecasting challenges.
method Innovative COBRA variations, data preprocessing, Bayesian optimisation vs. grid search.
result Proposed methodologies outperform state-of-the-art models.
Clustering is inherently ill-posed: there often exist multiple valid clusterings of a single dataset, and without any additional information a clustering system has no way of knowing which clustering it should produce. This motivates the use of constraints in clustering, as they allow users to communicate their interes…
We propose a new supervised learning algorithm, for classification and regression problems where two or more preliminary predictors are available. We introduce \texttt{KernelCobra}, a non-linear learning strategy for combining an arbitrary number of initial predictors. \texttt{KernelCobra} builds on the COBRA algorithm…
COBRA addresses strategic behavior in online platforms by ensuring truthful reporting without monetary incentives.
problem Ensuring truthful reporting from strategic agents in online platforms.
method Proposes COBRA, an algorithm for contextual bandits involving strategic agents that disincentivizes strategic behavior.
result COBRA achieves sub-linear regret guarantee and incentive compatibility without monetary incentives.
COBRA reduces modality gap in cross-modal tasks.
problem Joint embedding spaces fail to sufficiently reduce modality gap in multi-modal tasks.
method COBRA trains image and text modalities in a joint fashion using Contrastive Predictive Coding and Noise Contrastive Estimation.
result COBRA significantly reduces the modality gap and generates robust joint-embedding space.
The paper predicts survival functions using random survival trees and concordance maximization.
problem Predicting conditional survival functions in right-censored data.
method The approach combines regression strategies with random survival trees and maximizes concordance.
result The proposed weighted predictor outperforms the usual survival cobra in terms of concordance.
Paper proposes a new combined regression strategy for conditional survival prediction.
problem Improving survival prediction accuracy using conditional survival function.
method Uses regression-based weak learners with area-norm proximity measure to create an ensemble technique.
result The proposed model outperforms Random Survival Forest and selects important variables effectively.
Convex Biclusteringstat.ME
In the biclustering problem, we seek to simultaneously group observations and features. While biclustering has applications in a wide array of domains, ranging from text mining to collaborative filtering, the problem of identifying structure in high dimensional genomic data motivates this work. In this context, biclust…
Metabolic flux balance analyses are a standard tool in analysing metabolic reaction rates compatible with measurements, steady-state and the metabolic reaction network stoichiometry. Flux analysis methods commonly place unrealistic assumptions on fluxes due to the convenience of formulating the problem as a linear prog…
